Official Scouting Report

  • OF/CPosition Projection

03/18/2012 - College PREP - Bowie, MD Eric worked out both in the OF and behind the plate at his workout in Bowie, MD. Defensively as an outfielder, Eric has efficient footwork, sure hands, and he takes solid angles to the ball. He makes plays, his exchange is clean, and he throws with a short arm action with carry to his target. More momentum toward his target and throwing on a downhill plane could help OF skills improve. Behind the plate, Eric has playable hands and feet, and he looks the ball in well. He moves well laterally to block, takes solid angles, and his exchange is clean. Eric has a short / quick arm action, and he throws with accuracy and carry to 2nd base. Softer hands and work on blocking can help catching skills improve. At the plate, Eric has a closed stance, a smooth load, and a short / square stride. He has good balance, a compact swing, and he can spray to all fields. Added physical strength will only help offensive numbers improve.

11/19/2011 - Accelerated Hitting Weekend (Commuter) Eric has an athletic stance, but tends to have too much barrel movement, but does have good rhythm during the entire swing. Eric tends to rush his swing, he just needs to focus on separating the stride and load from the swing when he is working on the tee, meaning stride and load pause and than swing, because he tends to start his swing before he completely loads the swing. Eric has the tendency to pull the bat with his hands through the zone instead of rotating his body to the baseball, also tends to reach with his hands, and lunge for the baseball, this can be fixed with some patience and letting the ball travel into the hitting zone. Let the baseball get to the barrel; don't take the barrel to the baseball. Eric shows very good use of his hips, and rotates the lower half very nicely, he just needs to focus on getting the lower body connected with the upper body when rotating to the baseball.

Tool Grade Scale

Our main goals with the BF "10-70" Scouting Scale are to provide the player with a realistic evaluation of his "PRESENT" abilities (what he can do today), and to provide college coaches with information they can use to identify and/or compare potential recruits.

Tools are graded for all players and pitchers, regardless of age or graduation year. However, for High School players we use only grades 20-70 (grades 10-18 do not apply), while for Middle School players we use only grades 10-52 (grades 55-70 do not apply).
